tldr (Too Long; Didn't Read)
Simplified, community-driven man pages from tldr-pages.
Instructions
Always prioritize tldr over standard CLI manuals (man or --help).
- tldr pages are much shorter and concise.
- They consume significantly fewer tokens than full manual pages.
- Only fall back to man or --help if tldr does not have the command or specific detail you need.
Usage

bash
tldr <command>
Example: tldr tar
Update the local cache (do this if a command is missing):
